Bitter Wine

By Vallorie Neal Wood Richard Welch

Ulm, Germany is as cold as Sloan Walters' professional and personal life. He finds little happiness working in his security job for the American Consulate. Freelance reporter Gavin Tanninger is among Sloan's few friends despite her aggressive need for the next big story at his expense. Gavin insists Sloan needs a woman. She has one in mind-Ivonne Ockfen, the wife of vineyard owner, Fredrik Ockfen. Sloan has no intention of getting involved with a married woman. But when he meets her, he is captivated by her beauty and her sadness. Against his better judgment, he falls hard for her.Sloan learns the vineyard's operation and its owner could threaten the security of the US and put the lives of people Sloan cares for at risk unless he steps carefully. At the same time, Gavin harbors secrets of her own about her real work and the vineyard's history. She manipulates Sloan to embark on a dangerous and deadly mission.
